Pete,

try this site:

http://www.globar.com/

Kanthal is the company which manufactures Glo-bar

That part number matches their old number system,
for things we used to use, but not having close contact
with the procurement side anymore, I don't know if
that still matches their current part numbering system.

Their web site is a bit vague and I don't see anything
resembling a catalog page.
